Keybinding Question

TouchpadExpert·Dec 23, 2015·1 votes·548 views

I have been playing Shen quite a bit recently. When I ult onto an ally I usually press R onto my targeted ally's portrait down by the mini map at the right of the screen. Then I press Y and try to scroll over to where the action is as quickly and as precisely as I can. That last part is annoying to deal with at times as I am playing on a touchpad while I play this game. I was wondering if there is a feature in the game where I can press a button and have the camera focus on a particular teammate. Like pressing the 8,9,0 and - keys would allow me to get vision of them and hold vision of them while I hold these keys. It would be a real quality of life upgrade if someone can confirm for me if this is an available feature in the game and if so how to set it up. And if it is a feature whether rearranging your teammates in the tab section of the scoreboard will affect these new key bindings.

The Function Keys (F1, F2, F3, F4, F5) when pressed will camera lock and follow one of your teammates when pressed. So you can use that to follow your teammate that you target and when you get there you can release the key to get normal map movement.

I believe they are in order as champ select goes other than the F1 Key, which is binded to you by default.

If that works (I've never tried it), it should be in the same order as their portrait. So if you use the vertical old school style, you'd probably be F1, the top portrait would be F2 and so forth. If you use horizontal, it's probably left to right.

What if I am say the 3rd champion in the lineup. Would F3 go onto me or my 3rd team mate who is the 4th in the lineup?

The portraits on the side of the screen, not the tab screen

You are always F1.

I think you didn't understand what I mean.

You're always F1.

The other champions go in order of their portrait. So when you're in game, you can see portraits of your teammates, either top to bottom or left to right depending on your settings. F2 is person who is the topmost or leftmost portrait. F3 is the person who is second from the top or second from the left and so on.

But that would negate the truthiness of my moniker. Can't have that. I would be a fraud for playing on a mouse.
